The greatest win in US Soccer history? Absotively. After dominating possession and creating chances all game, our boys finally broke through just when it seemed we’d be going home frustrated. It’s the kind of finish you dream about as a little kid—late in the game, counting down the final seconds in your head as you take that last touch and fire your shot past the imaginary goalkeeper. Incredible stuff.

I can’t even bother breaking down the game with any specifics because I’m too emotionally spent. Every US match I’ve attended has been packed with passionate fans, and today was no different. The bar crowds chanting “USA USA” as if the team can hear them, people around me gasping with every foray into offense, groaning as the ball goes harmless wide after a strike, and a celebration with today’s 91st minute goal that sparked spontaneous hugging and even some tears. Even my great new haircut was overlooked, such an amazing win it was.

We’ll be liveblogging more tomorrow, with special looks at the German/England rivalry to come, and more dispatches from South Africa in the pipe. Stay tuned, kiddos. We love ya!
